I’ve been a bit remiss in submissions the last few weeks, and it's entirely my own fault…well, not entirely, but I am partially culpable. The last couple of weeks have been incredibly busy, both in work and around the games table, pushing painting into last place. Add to that a winter cold that just won’t give up, and you have my rather poor excuse for not finishing anything for a few weeks. I now have several jobs on the painting table, but only these Carts and Wagons got finished in time for today.
These are all MDF and produced by Warbases. I plan on using them as abandoned wagons or even makeshift barriaciads which is why I have not put them on terrain bases as I have done with other models. These are for use with the 1812 Retreat from Moscow stuff I have been working on, but I guess there's no reason they couldn't also feature in 1939/40... a cart is a cart at the end of the day, and the design hadn't fundamentally changed that much in the intervening century
More Winter War Soviets are on the way for next week. Their 90% done, but waiting for bases and varnishes to dry means I won’t get them finished, and I don’t want to rush and ruin them.
As for scoring, technically these are 28mm Vehicles, but I think it's a bit cheeky claiming 20pts each for these. Is a vehicle still a vehicle without a power source (in this case, a horse)?? So I think I'll leave the scoring for the umpire to adjudicate on this one! 🤣
From DaveD . Sorry to hear the winter bugs are still at you . You have a hobby with so many distractions , it’s a hard life 😆. But good to see some output . The warbases carts are nice simple little pieces , so I will give ya 40 altogether. Pretty sure Rays lads will be nicking these for for firewood ? Will you do a burning one ?😆
Until reading the post I had assumed they were metal not mdf. You have done these models proud.
